Chimney Inspection Levels Explained
Annual Maintenance Inspection
A Level 1 chimney inspection is recommended annually and included with every chimney cleaning. We visually inspect the readily accessible portions of the chimney exterior, interior, and the appliance connection. Ideal for chimneys in continued service with no changes.
- Visual inspection of accessible areas
- Check for obstructions and deposits
- Verify appliance connection
- Included with chimney sweep
Real Estate & Change-of-Use Inspection
A Level 2 chimney inspection is required when selling a home, after a chimney fire, after a weather event, or when changing fuel type. Includes everything in Level 1 plus video camera inspection of the flue interior and accessible attic/crawl space areas.
- Everything in Level 1
- Video camera flue inspection
- Attic and crawl space check
- Required for home sales
- After chimney fire or storm damage
Invasive Investigation Inspection
A Level 3 chimney inspection involves removal of certain components (drywall, chimney crown, etc.) to investigate suspected hidden hazards. Required when Level 1 or Level 2 reveals serious concerns that need further investigation.
- Everything in Level 1 & 2
- Removal of components as needed
- Investigation of concealed areas
- Structural assessment
- Detailed written report
Advanced Inspection Technology
We use the latest chimney inspection technology including high-definition chimney cameras for internal flue video inspection and drones for hard-to-reach exterior chimney inspection. This allows us to identify problems that aren't visible to the naked eye.
